District 8 Public Works Integrating Committee
The State Capital Improvement Program (SCIP) and the Local Transportation Improvement Program (LTIP) are two programs funded by the Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC) to assist in the financing of local public infrastructure improvements. The District 8 Public Works Integrating Committee is one of nineteen statewide district integrating committees established to administer SCIP and LTIP. SCIP and LTIP provide financial assistance to local communities for the improvement of their basic infrastructure needs. District 8 receives an annual allocation of approximately $10 million. Applications are due at the end of June and are evaluated based on a number of scoring criteria. The District 8 Integrating Committee approves funding for projects in November. Funding becomes available after July 1 of the following year.
